I must admit that I too did not hear the song in the movie and was
equally surprised to see that mentioned. I may want to go see that 
again ( thought it was a good flick ) so I will pay more attention to
that scene.

The only movie that I have heard a Who song in ( recently ) was 
"Goodfellas" where Henry |Hill was driving around NYC all coked
up in the last 45 minutes. Magic Bus from Live at Leeds was the 
song.
